- Sprinkle both the mozzarella and smoked gouda cheeses generously over the toppings.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.

Storage & Freezer Guide
Make it last Refrigerator 3-4 days
Store leftover pizza slices in an airtight container or wrapped tightly in foil in the refrigerator.
Freezer Up to 2 months
Wrap individual slices tightly in plastic wrap, then in aluminum foil, before freezing. For best quality, freeze within 1-2 days of making.
Reheat Oven/Air Fryer/Microwave
For best results, reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes, or in an air fryer until crispy. Microwave for convenience, though crust may be softer.
Chef’s Corner
- For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the cheese. A drizzle of ranch dressing after baking also complements the BBQ flavor beautifully.
- To achieve a crispier crust, pre-bake your pizza crust for 5-7 minutes before adding toppings, especially if using a thicker dough.
